Jasmine & Ease

It’s a another beautiful day. Our Golden Week weather has been stunning this year and we’ve enjoyed so many pleasant, sunny days that I wish the summer heat and humidity would never come. It’s just around the corner, but I will relish every one of these perfect days until the dog days set in.
Our day is a luxury of idleness. This afternoon’s agenda: consume a bottle of sparkling wine. Tonight we’ll grill a chicken and vegetables. We’ve been out for a walk, enjoyed lunch at St. Martin (they were out of chicken roti so I finally tried another dish from their menu), wandered around Kagurazaka a bit. I love the holidays.
